I hope Warne doesn’t expect him to run round like a mad dog or he won’t last 30 mins with his dodgy hamstrings . I don’t know if he can hold off 2 big centre half’s to get on the end of crosses . However he has always been a player to run on to quality through balls , Bird needs to give him the kind of pass that NML got at the away game .

I’m not expecting too much from him, was just observing that Ward is a very capable crosser of the ball and from what I briefly noticed about Gayle yesterday he seems to have good movement and intelligence in and around the box. The combined assets of those two players COULD be useful for us. jimtastic56 and r_wilcockson 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my dreams it’s me who scores that goal 😂😂 However, if the goal gives us automatic promotion I’m happy, in this case, to be the person who provides the winning goal pass to Gayle 🐏🐏🐏 Edited February 25 by Elwood P Dowd hintonsboots 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, need to manage expectations regarding Gayle, remembering that he was a last ditch signing. Would probably be OK as a stop gap while others return to fitness. But all things considered, what should we realistically be expecting of Waghorn, who's form seemed to have dipped since his hat trick at P'boro? jimtastic56 and TomTom92 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gee SCREAMER !! Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 3 hours ago, hintonsboots said: CBT to cross the ball to Gayle who scores the winner to give us automatic promotion. It’s going to happen. Who is this mythical CBT of whom you speak. I believe we randomly picked some geezer, took his photo gave him a game and £50 quid to make out we'd signed a player for money. We won't here anymore about this guy and the real CBT will be taken out of a cupboard at Charltons ground in June when they buy him back for 300k. The only thing I can't understand is why Charlton are going along with this. What do we have on their chairman ? hintonsboots, jimtastic56, RoyMac5 and 1 other 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eoghan1884 Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 I think over these next 5 games we will see a mixture of 4-3-3 and 5-3-2/5-2-3 As Warne seems to always have 1 extra centre back in comparison to how much strikers were coming up against. Against port vale and Reading I think a 4-3-3 with Wildsmith Nyambe Nels Cashin Elder Thompson Adams Bird NML Gayle CBT/Barks I think that would give us great balanace going up against 2 teams who play the same system in 4-2-3-1. That midfield has quality and legs aswell as the wingers having freedom with great defensive fullbacks behind them. Then against Charlton, Bristol and Bolton I’d like to see us with a 5 at the back system as they play 2 forwards and more direct. This would also allow us to have more rotation and see players like Kane, Hourihane and Bradley get rested who I think are players when fit and raring to go are difference makers.

Waghorny Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 Sack off the 5 ATB for the home games (and when playing Nyambe/Elder), i'd go for: Wildsmith Nyambe - Nelson - Cashin - Elder Bird - Adams - Thompson Wilson - Gayle - NML Subs: Vickers, Bradley, Sibley, Smith, Hourihane, CBT, Barks Perhaps a tad harsh on Bradley & Sibley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foreveram Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 With 4 out of the next five games at home the ticket sales for this one are a bit slow. Over 4,000 tickets left. More tickets already sold for the Saturday game against Port Vale, and Bolton game heading for a sellout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparkle Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 Our best available currently Wildsmith Nyambe. Nelson. Cashin. Elder Bird. Adams Hourahan NML Sibley. Barkhauzen Gayle when fit enough up front whilst Hourahan should start at home with Wilson decent off the bench out wide - hopefully CBT can improve our options at some point and Waghorn to finish the season how he started it.

I think whilst there’s definitely merit in your suggestion it’s really difficult to assess our best starting eleven as we have a few inconsistent players. I think Wilson for example has more skill than pretty much everyone else in the squad but he isn’t always effective. I don’t think Hourihane should start in midfield. It puts too much pressure on the other two. Smith isn’t quick either but he does generally take up good positions and passes sensibly, but he’s not a long term solution. I can’t believe Fornah is as poor as he’s shown so far. He needs to develop his play and be more proactive. If we could develop Wilson on the right of a three man midfield happy days. We need three up front to keep the opposition pinned back and to get back in the goals. We have Gayle in. Let’s create some space for him.

Seth's left foot Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 (edited) Wildsmith Nyambe Nelson Cashin Sibley Smith Adams Bird NML Waghorn Barkhuisen We never seem to start quickly at home so a more attacking formation is a must, especially against a side full of confidence since Jones took over. CBT will come off the bench, hopefully it won’t be long until he starts. Edited February 26 by Seth's left foot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rambalin Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 Warne said in his interview that there is a player doubtful.....but did not say who.Maybe it is Adams who he mentioned Saturday playing with injury Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
